- Showing how to clean the carburetor on the horizontal shaft vanguard briggs, this is a 16HP as example. Also show how all the linkages and governor springs are setup as well. Thanks for Watching!!!
Where is a good place to get parts for these engines. I have a 16horse Vanguard The vent tube is cracked. Plus may need carburetor gaskets. Thanks
Thank you so much for making these videos Man saved my ass a lot of time I was having a really tough one on this one I did it with the motor in the mower though I should have taken it out anyways great job and keep the good work up
Wow, those are more complicated or difficult to get to than most. Great demonstration of getting the carb off and cleaning. Thanks for sharing.
Yes they are, i don't care much for that setup! Thanks for Watching!!!
Excellent video. Gets right to it. I’m working on my son’s Cub Cadet. It has this carb. I cleaned it out while attached. Runs great! Thanks again for such a helpful video!!
Because I didn't have the money to go buy any carb clean I had a bottle of vinegar in the house and some Ziploc baggies so I filled the ziplock baggie up with vinegar and put the carburetor in there and let it soak for a day it did pretty good but there was still some gummed up stuff but I got it out and then that solenoid was gummed up too I took my torch and heated it up and then sprayed some wda 40 on it and smacked it on the vise a couple times and did what you said with the negative and positive cables and it started working just thought I'd share that took me a few days but you got her going thank you again man helped a lot

Hi I see it’s been a while since u posted the video, I’m putting this motor on a go cart for my son, any recommendations on how to get more out of the motor? Carb? If I remove governor I just throttle off linkage plate? Governor linkage kinda tricky
Can least show putting it back together..figuring out stuff online has become such a pain
Great information video, I have two of these engines, 14hp and a 16hp.
Keep Up The good work 👍. I like watching your videos 😉.
Cheers. Greetings from Slovenia 🇸🇮. :-)
Thanks will do! Thanks for Watching!!!
@Braydon Joziah nobody cares
9:18 made me laugh. The main thing is, that it works.
haha Thanks for Watching!!!
Sir. I have this very engine and attempted a carb clean. Reason being I was having some rough starting issues. She needed open choke and throttle to really fire up. After the clean she starts really well, but now cuts out on idle. Do have any suggestions for what might be the issue here? Thanks in advance!

Problem solved. It was primarily a bad fuel pump. I changed the oil, all filters, new pump and sonic cleaned the carb. With a little fuel screw and idle adjustment she purrs like a cat now
Great video thanks for sharing 👍
The engine starts good but after you take off choke it dies after a min and then if you choke it - it stays started
Hi fnagitarplayer9, new subscriber watching from the uk, i have enjoyed this video found it helpful now am looking for the video on setting the governor on this type of engine any chance you could share the link to the video thanks 👍👍
I have a question. I am having a similar v-twin with out fuel pump. I am having a back feed of fuel coming out of my vent with excessive fuel dripping from my exhaust pipe. I assume this is a jet or float issue in the carburetor. Have you seen this before? Love your work it is greatly appreciated.
Yes more then likely its a float/needle valve issue. I have seen it before and thats what it usually is. Thanks for Watching!!!
thank you have a 16 hp vanguard on a rear mount snapper rider sr1642 model having carburetor issues only difference i don't have fuel solenoid
It will probably just need a good cleaning. Thanks for Watching!!!
Thanks for the video! Yesterday I picked up a free Coleman Vantage 7,000 generator on FB Marketplace, owner said it came with his house 8 years ago! Fresh gas and it started, but I want to go over the carb. I'm going to try leaving it in place, but do want to get a carb kit with new gaskets.
Thanks for these videos. I just bought a pug f570 with the 18 hp version of this...
I got a question about one of the springs on the throttle linkage setup. Is there anyway I could connect up with you to go over it?
great video, but what does that 1/8in elbow tube do that comes out of the top of the carburetor ?
Its a vent tube, goes to open atmosphere
Great video. I have a 2006 Snapper Trail Cruiser UTV with 16 HP Vanguard engine. There are times when it is difficult to push the gas pedal, feel a good bit of resistance in the gas pedal. Do you think that is a throttle linkage problem? Thank you in advance for any suggestions you can provide.
I have this engine on a generator that I got that didn't come with a carburetor and the fuel is gravity fed, do I still need the fuel solenoid? (I bought a new carburetor)
Iam so glad to find your video on this,,I didn't have any breather , air filter etc to even know how to find out what I needed for replacing missing part's also had dirty carb to clean, again your video helped me immensely,, Thanks so much ,!
I know this is a silly question how do you hook linkage up for the carburetor choke on a 16 horse vanguard motor
Very good info. I ran across this researching while working on a '07 Toro Sand Pro, with almost 1200 hrs. Basically a riding, 3 wheeled rake for golf course bunkers. It has the Vanguard V twin engine, (not sure what HP) almost exactly like the ones you feature, except the valve adjustment is different. The valve cover bolts (2) screw into the center of the rocker arm, and adjustment is made at the top of the rocker arm. Its been doing all three things you mentioned about acting like a weak battery when starting, backfiring, and surging, or "huntin'" we call it, at idle. I have made all the adjustments like you showed, now on my way out to buy a set of spark plugs. I hope to fire it up first thing tomorrow. My question is, what is the almost triangle shaped cover thing that sits down in the valley pan, one bolt right in the center of it, just in front of the governor? It has a 90 degree hose, from almost the top of the carb going into it. A breather maybe? Could it be clogged, and is there anything I might have missed, in addition to your adjustments trying to fix these three issues? Thanks!
Excellent tutorial, Thank You, very much.
I’ve got a vanguard 16 that’s a gravity fed the gas tanks on top carburetor spotless I took it apart I cleaned it it runs perfect and ideal spot on it revs everything is great issue is when I shut it off I come back the next day and the gas has flooded and has drained out all over the ground.Unfortunately mine does not have the solenoid to shut the fuel off so it relies solely on a Float needle to seal.And looking at all the diagrams it appears that because mines a gravity fed it has an aluminum needle it has a rubber tip and it rubber tip is supposed to see inside of the brass pressed and see from the carburetor that is non-removable non-replaceable and that’s supposed to seal off fuel flow.So my question to you is how do you adjust the float level height so that the fuel gets shut off sooner and that way mine will not flood.I know there’s that little metal tab on the float which way do you bend it how much do you bend it and is there a way to test it with the carburetor cover removed so that you don’t have to play trial and error every single time and strip the top half of the engine down in order to get to removing the carburetor cover.
this one is just like the one I have. I will try doing this tomorrow. Thanks a lot.
I have one of these engines, I picked it up last summer for $110. It was flooding at the scene. So I know the carb floods over. I haven't got around to fixing it yet because I haven't needed it. I had the opportunity to get a 20hp for $200 kick myself that I didn't, these are expensive engines. This video will help when I finally tackle it.
They are really good engines, very reliable and powerful, glad to help out! Thanks for Watching!!!
Great information . I always have trouble with the set up of the springs and linkage. Well done .Thanks.
Your welcome! Thanks for Watching!!!
@@fnaguitarplayer9 can anyone advise me i was given a wizard riding mower the other day it is powered by a 13 hp power built briggs and stratton model # 28.707 type #1154e1 code # 010124zd the alternator is burned up and id like to put a 40 amp alternator so i can pull my lit trailer and not have my battery go dead also use an electronic voltage regulator>> my question is will a 40 amp alternator git under my old flywheel >>and the flywheell still work?? please advise with an alternator part number thanks gerald from deep south texas
I gave up trying to get jets out a lo9ng time ago. I just LAY the carb spray to it;s hide several times and then put the air compressor after it. Several times with that whole deal is usually enough for them to run and do like you said and the engine will clean everything up. And the best thing I did for the 1/2 VW Vanguard 20 horse was get a fully adjustable carb off Ebay. It runs steady now without surging or have the choke partway out. Thanks a lot for this. The linkages and the Vanguard are a lot similar! Watch out for the crickets and pick me one!
Yeah, I always try, sometimes they will come right out but yeah that usually works just as good. Thanks for Watching!!!
IS THE HOLE IN THE BOTTOM OF THE PILOT JET SUPPOSED TO BE OPEN? I CLEARED MINE OUT AND LOOKS LIKE IT HITS BRASS AND ITS SOLID
Excellent video and description. Well done.
Appreciate that, Thanks for Watching!!!
Excellent tutorial. Thanks mate
I have exact carburetor which came with a 2019 vanguard engine. The engine hunts, even after taking carb top off and cleaning both top jets, it still hunts, then I bought a new carb, and it has a adjustable bronze mixture screw like you show on yours, but the original 2019 carb where that screw is has a piece of metal inside the hole. Have you ever taken that metal out to see if a screw is behind it? Reason I ask is I think that adjustment may be blocked and possibly causing my bad idle condition.
A good place to start would also be proper valve adjustment
thank you. this is exactly the carb I have.
Good info Bud Thanks👍
Your welcome, Thanks for Watching!!!
Exelent vidio.gen is running like new again.
I have a generator with this engine, it runs great but I have a few small issues. While running it has a slight sputtering, and today i started it and it started leaking fuel out of the vent on the side of the carb. Any idea what would cause these issues?
First thing i'd check is the needle valve/seat and/or the float, if its sticking letting it flood out it will do that. Thanks for Watching!!!
Very helpful!! Thank you!!
thankyou, question there is a second port on the carburetor that had no line on it... mine was the same way any idea what that is for? when I cleaned the carb that port was clogged.
Its probably just a vent, if its what i'm thinking of... Thanks for Watching!!!
I've got the same vanguard engine. What is the part number for the card rebuild kit
If you can give me your model type and code i can be 100% sure before i give you a part number. Thanks for Watching!!!
Mínimo porfa español
will you please make a video of how you converted an auto choke on a briggs to a manual choke.
Already did, ua-cam.com/video/1WWpeyDbHjA/v-deo.html Thanks for Watching!!!
I’ve got a 16 hp vanguard it has very little use it probably is 20 hours in the past 20 years it’s a gravity fed fuel system I’ve clean the carburetor it starts up and idles fine it performs well the issue is when I shut it off fuel is somehow getting by and Hydro locking into the cylinders even if I manually shut off the fuel flow from the tank the fuel bowl on these models is very large as you can Seeing your picture and that fuel is leaking past I’ve already replaced the needle so my question to you is how do I adjust the float level you mentioned that you can bend that tab if I want to reduce the amount of fuel that’s getting into the bowl which direction do I bend it
Mines an older model made by Daihatsu in Japan it does not have the fuel cell celrnoid like you see in your picture.
I took it apart again this morning I remove the needle I polished the little cylinder that the needle goes in because there’s a little bit of residue in there and I figured maybe it’s getting needles getting hung up on some of the residue I polish that cleaned it out put it together starts right up you shut it off if you don’t turn the fuel off because it’s gravity feed it feels a cylinder I use the new needle this time again and it still will not seal I am at my wits end.
Thank you....
thks so helpful
Great video. Question. At 2:04 in the video you wipe that piece that comes off the carb. What is that? Is there a hose that hooks to that? I have the same engine on a debris loader and took out of storage and when filled up tank with gas and turned the fuel line on that thing pours out gas. Thanks!
Same problem here, my float was stuck. Also, when he pulled up the floats and showed the pin that can be adjusted... i suspect mine is dirty, because it still leaks some after getting the floats un-stuck. If it's gravity feed fuel, but in a shutoff valve.... saves gas. (Another question like this was answered, here is his answer: " First thing i'd check is the needle valve/seat and/or the float, if its sticking letting it flood out it will do that. "
@@daviddupre3239 yep. Cleaning out my carb solved my issue.
What goes on tube at top of carb
looks like some type hose or is it just open
Its like a hose, but its kind of weird shaped at the top and goes into the bottom part of the air breather assembly. thanks for watching!!!
Why does my vanguard have gas coming out of the hose nipple on the side of the top of the carburetor ?
Those Vanguards are great engines, great video! I recently bought 2 big Briggs single cylinder horizontal shaft flat head engines for a steal, one is a 16 HP single cylinder cast iron engine, cast iron block and it weighs a ton. The other is an 11 HP and it's an aluminum block, both engines have electric start. I got the 16 HP running by just cleaning and rebuilding the carb, cleaning the points, etc and it runs like a champ. The 11 HP had a stuck valve, the exhaust valve was stuck open. Keep up the great work!
Thanks! those are good engines, Thanks For Watching!
